<p>[QUOTE="Cloudsweeper99, post: 87666, member: 3011"]I've removed verdigris from a few low value circulated copper coins with light strokes with a soft toothbrush. It did not leave any marks visible with even low powered magnification, so maybe copper is hard enough to withstand this treatement. I would prefer this approach to using a fingernail or toothpick which are both harder than the bristles on the brush and could do more damage to the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
